    I find myself somewhat split on this issue because I firmly believe that every woman has a right to an abortion, on the other hand, it's no coincidence that most Planned Parenthood facilities are located in or around black communities.

    Planned Parenthood also accepts donations from people who will only sponsor a woman if she is of a certain race or ethnicity. 90% of the time the donation is targeted at a black or hispanic woman.

    At the moment I don't have the time nor the inclination to cite my sources, but they are numerous.

    Your ignorance will have to remain, yours.

    Not really. When it comes down to it, he still adheres to Mormon principles.

    This is the irony of the pro life movement. Once these kids start committing crimes the Republican solution. . . . The death penalty.

    One other thought. Now that there won’t be any more abortions, more black, brown, and red people will be born.
    I guess Alito, and the republicans didn’t think about that.

    Alito’s argument changes the way the SCOTUS has operated for years upon years upon years. It breaks the SCOTUS’ legitimacy immediately. It also severely restricts its own power. It is a completely bizarre and stupendously illogical decision which the American people will hold the bag for.

    This seems like an appropriate quote for the day:

    "History never repeats itself, man always does"

    Voltaire (1649–1722)

    The integrity of the supreme Court was ruined when Merrick Garland got the Republican shaft.

    Then we have the I like beer boy.

    I said my 2 cents on the first page. Perhaps I am the only woman posting in this thread. Maybe some women are too young to know how this possible change in the US could affect their lives and those of their daughters.

    70 % of US citizens alive today--have never known life Before Roe v Wade.

    Good thing we had SCOTUS packed with a bunch of whack job judges - put there for this specific purpose. Amazing how quickly RvW got struck down vs. how long it was in court originally. Must be those good ol' conservative 'values'...... I figure the Catholic Church must be very pleased, now there will be more illegitimate babies that they can sell via their Catholic Charities money laundering front. $50k might buy you a white American infant.....must be all those legal fees to sign two documents...

    Probably a whistle blower trying to alert the 70% of Americans who believe R V W should stand.

    There is no law against revealing SCOTUS drafts. No security breach. It's only tradition not to reveal them and moral and ethical traditions went out the door with Trump and his Republican stooges.

    I believe it's been narrowed down to two of Sotomayor's aids.

    Gotta love how quickly the Repubs spun this into them being the victim. Like if you find a dismembered corpse in their basement and they're like WHAT WERE YOU DOING IN MY BASEMENT YOU EGREGIOUS CRIMINAL! :rolleyes:
